General Refill GuidelinesWHEN USING CUTTING OR DRILLING EQUIPMENT, WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES AND

FOLLOW ALL OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. KEEP INK OUT OF REACHOF CHILDREN. MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. DO NOT INGEST. IN CASE OF

INGESTION, SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKINAND EYES. SAFETY INFORMATION AT WWW.STRATITEC.COM.

Successfully refilling ink cartridges may take some practice, but the process gets easier eachtime. It is extremely important that you read these refill guidelines and the instructions for yourcartridge carefully to ensure desired results and avoid mishaps.

✔ Refill cartridges in an area that is well-suited for the work.

✔ Ink can spill; place a large sheet of aluminum foil and/or a thick pile of newspaper on your work surface.

✔ Keep distractions to a minimum.

✔ Wear an apron or older clothes in case of a spill, as well as plastic glovesto protect your hands from ink stains.

✔ Clean up immediately with soap and water.

✔ Ink on hands or arms will wash off in a few days.

Do not refill over carpeted areas or near fine furniture.

✔ Syringe size and style may vary. Always use a syringe with a locking tipwhere specified.

✔ Always check to be sure that the needle or tip is securely attached to thesyringe.

✔ Do not fill syringe with ink until you are ready to refill your cartridge.

✔ Unused ink may be returned to the appropriate ink bottle or stored in thesyringe. Be sure to secure a rubber scabbard to each needle tip toprevent leaking or drying out.

✔ Label the syringe(s) to easily identify the ink color.

✔ Thoroughly rinse and dry needle and syringe when changing ink colors.

✔ Do not remove the bottle seals.

✔ Use a needle or the screw tool to create a small hole in the seal and drawink through the hole in the seal.

✔ To avoid accidental spills, replace the bottle caps promptly.


Prepare a Work Area

Prepare Ink andSyringes

Do Not Remove Seals




Old and/or dry cartridges may not work, even after refilling, priming andcleaning.

✔ Refill your cartridges just before or immediately after they run out of ink.

✔ Cartridges should not be stored outside of your printer for more than anhour unless required as part of the refill process.

✔ Ink in the ink supply outlets or print heads will dry out in cartridges thatare stored improperly, or allowed to remain empty for long periods of time, and refilling such cartridges may not be successful.

✔ Color printers require special ink colors to produce high-quality prints.Standard color printers require color blends known as cyan (blue/green),magenta (red/purple), and yellow.

✔ Many inkjet printers can use “photo” cartridges, which require twoadditional colors: “photo cyan” or light cyan and “photo magenta” orlight magenta. Printers that require these additional photo cartridges arecalled “six-color” printers.

Photo cyan and photo magenta inks are only for six-color printers. Theyare not intended for use in standard four-color printers, even whenprinting photos. If photo cyan and/or photo magenta are used in astandard four-color printer, the color balance will be incorrect and thequality will be reduced.

Injecting the wrong color of ink into the ink chamber of a color cartridgewill cause unfavorable results and may ruin your cartridge.

✔ Use care when refilling color cartridges. Always inject the correct colorof ink into the correct ink chamber.

✔ To verify the color of ink contained in each chamber of the cartridge,insert a wooden toothpick into each refill hole, withdraw it, and thencheck the color of the toothpick.

Overfilled cartridges may leak and cause color contamination.

✔ Overfilled cartridges will not print. Use care to avoid overfilling!

✔ Use only enough ink to fill the cartridge.

✔ If you do overfill your cartridge, refer to the instructions for yourcartridge and use a syringe to extract excess ink.

Never install a cartridge that is leaking, dripping, or oozing ink. Doing somay damage your printer.

Recommended Tools

1. Read pages 4-5 in the manual for important general information thatwill improve your results.

If your kit includes the cartridge refill clip tool, you may optionallyfollow the instructions under “ Refilling with the Clip Tool “ on page 29 to refill your HP 15 or 45 cartridge.

2. Before refilling, turn the cartridge upside down and remove the black tape (or plug) covering the fill hole.

3. If this is the first time refilling the cartridge, you will find a stainlesssteel ball bearing in the fill hole as shown in the diagram. Push the ballbearing into the cartridge using the tip of an empty syringe (without

the needle).

Be very gentle in the following steps when inserting the needle into thecartridge. If the ink bag is damaged, the cartridge can no longer beused.

4. Fill the syringe with ink and inject into the fill hole. Repeat untilbubbles appear at the fill hole.

5. In order to seal the fill hole, you must firmly squeeze the cartridgesides and put a large plug into the hole. (Squeezing the cartridgewhile the plug is inserted creates back pressure that helps stop the ink from leaking out when refilling is completed.)

6. Some ink may drip from the print head. Place the cartridge in a sink orpan for 1-2 minutes with the print head down. Gently wipe the printhead with a paper towel. Hold the cartridge up so the print head isdown, and look at the print head. If you see any liquid ink, thecartridge is not properly pressurized and is leaking. Repeat theprevious step.

7. Place the cartridge into your printer and run test/cleaning cycles asdescribed in your printer manual. Please read Resetting Ink Levels toreset your printer's ink level counters.

Recommended Tools

1. Read pages 4-5 for important general information that will improve yourresults.

2. Locate the plugs (actual plug positions may vary) on the top of the cartridgeand use the screw tool to push the plugs through the refill holes and into thecartridge. Leave the plugs in the cartridge. If your cartridge does not haveplugs, or if you are unable to push the plugs into the cartridge, then drill refillholes where indicated at left.

3. Verify the ink colors in each chamber (see “Use Colors Correctly” on page 5 ).Do NOT rely solely upon cartridge label colors.

4. Select the color to be refilled and fill a syringe with ink. Place tape over theremaining refill holes to prevent cross-contamination. TAPE MUST BEREMOVED BEFORE CARTRIDGE IS REINSTALLED OR CARTRIDGE WILLNOT PRINT.

5. Carefully insert the needle into the correct refill hole until the needle tip ishalfway into the foam sponge, then position the cartridge horizontally asindicated below, right.

6. Slowly inject up to 10ml of ink. Injecting ink too quickly may trap air inside thecartridge. As you add ink, watch the print head closely. If ink begins to comeout of the print head or around the refill hole, stop filling, then use the syringeto extract 1ml of ink.

7. Leave the cartridge in the horizontal position as indicated below. Repeat steps4-6 to fill each color in the cartridge.

8. Verify ink flow by pressing the print head against a damp paper towel. Eachcolor should leave a solid line on the towel. If some ink colors are not visible,follow the cartridge priming instructions on page 29 .

This cartridge is easy to overfill. Check / correct overfilling by following theinstructions on page 33 .

9. Re-install the cartridge, run cleaning cycles, and print test pages. To reset ink levels, please refer to the section on “Resetting Ink Levels” on page 31 . If printresults are unsatisfactory or colors are incorrect, please refer to “Tri-ColorCartridge Troubleshooting” on page 28 .

For best results, refill cartridges before they are empty.

6. Refill each color by repeating the above process, making sure to tape over theunused refill holes to prevent contamination.

7. Verify ink flow by pressing the print head against a damp paper towel. Eachcolor should leave a solid line on the towel. If not all ink colors are visible,follow the priming instructions on page 30 .


8. Remove any tape covering the refill holes and replace the original sticker. Re-install the cartridge, run cleaning cycles, and print test pages. If print resultsare unsatisfactory or colors are incorrect, please refer to “Tri-Color CartridgeTroubleshooting” on page 28 .

9. Ink levels are estimated by the printer based on the amount of printing thathas been done. Consequently, the printer may report the cartridge as empty,even when completely refilled. Ignore the low ink messages and continueprinting.






2. If this is the first refill, the cartridge top must be removed. Some kits mayinclude a top removal tool (shown left). Please review “Cartridge TopRemoval” instructions and “Alternate Removal Methods” on page 32 . If youneed a top removal tool, please see www.easyinkjetrefill.com.

3. When removing the top, be careful not to damage the black tab, locatednear the lid, as this is required to securely reinstall the cartridge in theprinter.

4. Select the color to be refilled and fill a syringe with ink.

5. With the cartridge upright, carefully insert the needle into the correctchamber (as indicated below, left), until the tip of the needle is halfway into

the foam sponge. Do NOT push the needle all the way to the bottom.6. Slowly inject up to 8ml of ink into the appropriate chamber for your

cartridge. Injecting ink too quickly may trap air inside the cartridge. As youadd ink, watch the sponge surface closely. The original color of the spongeis white. Stop filling as soon as you see the ink start to come up around theneedle or edges. If possible, do NOT allow the color of the sponge tochange. If ink appears on the surface of the sponge, stop filling, then usethe syringe to extract 0.5-1ml of ink. Refill each color by repeating theabove process, keeping the cartridge upright.

7. Verify ink flow by pressing the print head against a damp paper towel. Eachcolor should leave a solid line on the towel. If all ink colors are not visible,or if one or more colors are faint, follow the priming instructions on page30 .

8. Once the cartridge is refilled, tape the cartridge top securely in place.

9. Re-install the cartridge, run cleaning cycles, and print test pages. If printresults are unsatisfactory or colors are incorrect, please refer to “Tri-ColorCartridge Troubleshooting” on page 28 .

These cartridges dry out easily when unused, even if filled with ink. As thecartridge dries out, the ink in the bottom chambers becomes very thick andis almost impossible to remove, even after refilling with fresh ink. For bestresults, don't allow these cartridges to sit unused for long periods of time.

2. Place the cartridge on thickly folded paper towels. Ink may begin to drip fromthe cartridge after opening the refill hole and while injecting ink.

3. Old cartridges may have a refill hole on the top corner that is sealed by a ballbearing. If you have an old cartridge, push the ball bearing into the cartridge.Take care not to damage the print head by pressing it too hard against thework surface. If your cartridge does not have a refill hole with a ball bearing,use a 3mm drill bit to make a refill hole where indicated at left.

The hole that is located in the center of the cartridge top is NOT a fill hole.Inserting any object or fluid into this hole may damage the ballast bags andrender the cartridge unusable.

4. Fill a syringe with the appropriate color of ink and, with the cartridge upright,carefully insert the needle into the refill hole and quickly fill the cartridge untilit is almost full (25-40ml). Expect ink to begin dripping from the bottom.

5. Once the cartridge is refilled, promptly seal the refill hole with a rubber plug.Do not use tape. The seal must be airtight or the cartridge will leak.

6. Turn the cartridge upside down to expose the vent maze. Attach the smallpriming tip (page 3 ) onto an empty syringe and put the tip of the syringe intothe outlet hole of the vent maze.

7. Pull back on the syringe to withdraw 3-4 ml of air, bubbles and/or ink from thecartridge. The pressure in the cartridge should now be properly balanced.

8. Wipe the cartridge with a damp paper towel. Hold the cartridge in an uprightposition for 30 seconds and look closely at the bottom. If you see ink seepingfrom the print head or vent maze outlet hole, you must verify that the refillhole is sealed properly and repeat steps 6 - 8. The process should be repeateduntil the cartridge no longer seeps, indicating that the pressure is equalized.

9. Verify ink flow by pressing the print head against a damp paper towel. Theprint head should leave a solid black line on the damp towel. If you don't see asolid black line, follow the priming instructions on page 30 .

10. Wait approximately 2 minutes, then follow step 8 again as a final check thatthe cartridge is not leaking. Re-install the cartridge, run cleaning cycles, andprint test pages.

Check to verify that your cartridge has not exceeded its expiration date.Printers that use the HP14 cartridge are unable to use expired cartridgesunless the ink-level chip is replaced. See www.easyinkjetrefill.com for details.

2. Place the cartridge with the ink outlet(s) facing up, as indicated at left, on aflat, ink-resistant surface or on paper towels or absorbent cloth in case of spillsor leakage.

3. Select color to be refilled and fill a syringe with ink, then carefully remove theneedle and attach the small priming tip (page 3 ).

4. Gently press the priming tip against the appropriate ink outlet, as indicatedbelow left, and slowly inject up to 6ml of color ink or up to 23ml of black ink.It is important not to dent, mar, or damage the sponge when refilling or thecartridge will be unusable. Stop filling when the sponge is full and stopsabsorbing ink quickly. A dry sponge may absorb ink more slowly.

5. Carefully turn the cartridge to the upright position, using a paper towel orabsorbent cloth to absorb any ink dripping from the ink outlet. Hold cartridgeupright until ink no longer drips from the ink outlet. Installing the cartridgewhile ink is still dripping and/or leaking out of the cartridge may damage yourprinter.


7. Most printers that use the HP 14 cartridge must either have the ink-level

monitor disabled, or have the ink-level chip replaced in order to use refilledcartridges. Instructions for disabling the ink counter may be in your printermanual. Additional details are online at www.easyinkjetrefill.com.

If you disable the ink-level monitor, you MUST NOT let the cartridge run dry. A dry cartridge may cause air bubbles to form in the printhead, stopping theprinthead from working properly. Refill frequently and refill immediately if

you see a reduction in print quality or one of the colors stops printing. Forbest results, we recommend replacing the ink level chip with a resettable chipand using a chip resetter after each refill to reduce the chance of the cartridgerunning dry.

2. Some cartridges have a hard top, while others have a flat top with a sticker.For cartridges with a sticker, simply peel it back to reveal the fill holes.Cartridges with a hard top must have a hole drilled in the top of the cartridgewith a 3mm drill bit. Drill all the way through the plastic top.

3. Fill a syringe with black ink. With the cartridge upright, carefully insert theneedle into the refill hole, as indicated below, left, until the needle tip is abouthalfway into cartridge.

4. Slowly inject ink into the cartridge. Injecting ink too quickly may trap airinside the cartridge. Amount of ink needed varies by cartridge and depends onhow empty the cartridge is before refilling. Fill until ink appears at the fillhole, then remove 1ml from the cartridge near the surface of the fill hole.

5. Verify ink flow by pressing the print head against a damp paper towel. Theprint head should leave a solid black line on the towel. If ink is not visible,follow the priming instructions on page 30 .

This cartridge is easy to overfill. After filling, drain excess ink by placing thecartridge upside-down in a sink on a thickly folded stack of paper towels.When ink stops draining from the cartridge, check / correct any remainingoverfill condition by following the instructions on page 33 .

6. Re-install the cartridge, run cleaning cycles, and print test pages. If printresults are unsatisfactory, the cartridge may be overfilled. Remove anadditional 1-2ml of ink and try again.

For best results, refill cartridges before they are empty.

1. Read pages 4 -5 for important general information that will greatly improve your results.

2. Press and hold the ink outlet hole against the rubber sealing pad, maintainingpressure against the sealing pad to minimize leaking as you refill. If your kitdoes not include the rubber sealing pad, you may optionally use high qualityblack electrical tape. (If you do not seal the ink outlet, ink will drip from theink outlet hole until the refill hole is sealed with a plug.)

3. Use the included 3mm drill bit to drill a hole where indicated at left. Be surethat the refill hole is clean and smooth, as the small plug must create anairtight seal once the cartridge is refilled.

4. Inject the appropriate color of ink into the ink reservoir until it is full. Wait 15-30 seconds for the ink to saturate the sponge. Add additional ink, if necessary,to fill the ink reservoir.

5. Seal the refill hole with a small plug. If the seal is not airtight, the cartridgewill leak. If you did not use the included 3mm drill bit, if the plug does not sealproperly, or if the cartridge continues to leak, use hot glue to seal the refillhole. Do NOT use tape as it will not provide a proper permanent seal.

6. After you remove the tape or rubber sealing pad from the ink outlet, a fewdrops of ink SHOULD drip from the cartridge. If you don't get any drips, holdthe cartridge over paper towels and carefully remove the plug from the sealhole until the ink outlet begins to drip, then quickly repeat step 5.

7. Let the cartridge sit for 10-20 seconds until it is no longer dripping ink. Givethe sponge chamber a light squeeze for a final drip to balance the pressure. If the cartridge continually drips ink, refer to step 5 to seal the refill hole.

8. Once the cartridge is filled and no longer dripping ink, re-install the cartridge,run cleaning cycles, and print test pages. NEVER install a dripping or leakingcartridge in your printer.

9. Some printers may not be able to tell that the CLI-8 and PGI-5 type cartridgesare full again after reinstalling them in the printer. If so, you may need toeither press the button on the printer until the error light goes out, or use theprinter driver option to continue printing. If you do this, be sure to keep thecartridges refilled BEFORE they run empty.

For best results, do not leave empty or refilled cartridges out of the printerunless tightly sealed in a heavy plastic bag.

Cartridges marked with a “*” have an ink-level chip that must be reset to usethe cartridge after refilling. For instructions, see page 25 .


2. Verify the ink color in each chamber before filling (see “Use Colors Correctly”on page 5 ). Do NOT rely solely upon cartridge label or diagram colors. Thediagrams below show the colors in the chamber as seen from the top.

3. Fill a syringe ( without a locking tip if included) with ink. Remove air bubblesby pushing all the ink and air in the syringe back into the bottle and

withdrawing ink again.4. Have paper towels ready to absorb excess ink. If using a syringe without a

locking tip, prepare for a few drips of ink, then remove the needle from thesyringe and set the needle aside and put the tip of the syringe into the ink outlet for the color you are refilling, as shown. If using a syringe with lockingtip, insert needle into the fill hole on the top of the cartridge (not shown).Slowly inject ink, gently tapping the cartridge after every few ml to help airbubbles escape. Injecting ink too quickly may stop you from filling thecartridge completely. As you add ink, watch the top vent holes closely. Whenink begins to come out of the vent hole, stop filling but leave the syringe inplace. Extract 1-2 ml of ink to remove air from the ink outlet and to reduceoverfilling. Remove the syringe and clean away excess ink with paper towels.

5. Wash and dry the needle and syringe. Refill each color by repeating steps 2-4.Place the filled cartridge on thickly folded paper towels and allow to sit for 2-3minutes with the ink outlet down, then 2-3 minutes with the ink outlets up.Some ink may drip from the ink outlet and/or vent holes during this process.

6. Follow chip resetting instructions, if needed, and re-install the cartridge. Runcleaning and test cycles. The best print quality is usually obtained after lettingthe printer sit idle with the refilled cartridges installed for 4-24 hours, thenrunning cleaning cycles again.

Ink Outlets

Fill by injecting ink intothe ink outlet. Air andbubbles may come outthe top of the cartridge.

When finished filling, withdraw 1-2 ml toremove air and reduceoverfilling.

Stop filling when ink comes out the venthole on the top.

Use asyringe

without alocking

tip.




Cartridges marked with a “*” have an ink-level chip that must be reset touse the cartridge after refilling. For instructions, see page 25 .

1. Read pages 4 -5 for important information that will improve your results.

2. Use a needle or screw tool to puncture the plastic film over the ink fill hole.

3. Fill the large syringe with exactly 20ml of ink, remove the needle and attacha small priming tip. To make filling easier, we recommend trimming 3mm(1/8 inch) from the small end of the priming tip.

4. Set the cartridge upright, as shown, and push the syringe tip into the ink fillhole until it makes a tight seal as shown. Maintain the seal while refilling.

5. Carefully note the starting position of the plunger in the syringe. Pull firmlyon the syringe plunger to withdraw air from the cartridge, then allow theplunger to go back to the starting position, filling the cartridge with ink.Repeat, pulling back quickly and firmly until you are unable to draw anyadditional air bubbles out of the cartridge.

6. Carefully remove the syringe from the fill hole, tip the syringe up, cover thepriming tip with wadded paper towels and eject the air from the syringe.

7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all the air is withdrawn from the cartridge. If thecartridge is empty, it will hold 15-16ml, leaving 4-5ml in the syringe. (TheT0431extra large black holds 35-37ml, and will require a syringe refill.)

8. Top off the cartridge by putting a needle on the syringe and injecting intothe fill hole until totally full. This cartridge cannot be overfilled.

9. Wipe excess ink from the fill hole and seal with an extra large* rubberplug. Extra large plugs are only included in kits that list these cartridges ascompatible on the package. If you need extra large plugs, they are availablefor purchase at www.easyinkjetrefill.com.

DO NOT use the regular large plug, silver tape dots, or tape. An improperseal may allow ink to leak after replacing the cartridge in the printer.

10. When completed, the cartridge should weigh 40-43g (~1.5oz). TheT0431extra large black should weigh 67-69g (~2.5oz). Although notrequired, we recommend using an accurate scale, such as a postal scale, toweigh the cartridge after filling. If the cartridge is not at full weight, it isnot full, and will run out before the printer expects it to. If you cannot get tothe full weight, refill the cartridge again when your printer driver reportsink levels below 25% to prevent the cartridge from running completely dry.

The printer should be able to print again immediately, or after 1-2 cleaningcycles. If not, place the cartridge with the ink exit hole facing down andwithdraw a few ml of ink from the ink exit hole by inserting the tip of thelarge syringe and pulling back. Be sure to fill the cartridge again, or it willrun out of ink before the printer expects it to.

Many Epson brand cartridges use ink-level chips that disable the cartridgewhen a pre-determined number of droplets are printed. To refill and use acartridge with an ink-level chip, a chip reset device must be used. For moreinformation, please visit www.easyinkjetrefill.com.

Epson Chip Reset Device Instructions:

1. Most cartridges can be reset with a standard device (shown). Some largeformat cartridges require a special large format reset device (not shown).

2. If you have a tall and thin cartridge (see below), prepare the reset device to fit your cartridge by installing a plastic guide.

3. Align your cartridge with the chip reset device. The pins on the reset devicemust align exactly with the contacts on the ink-level chip on the cartridge.

4. After a few seconds, the LED light should begin flashing red. If the reset is

successful, the light will turn green after 3-4 seconds.

If the light does not flash, you have not made contact with the ink-level chip.Try pressing the reset device against the cartridge again, and with thecartridge and the reset device pressed together, move the reset device slightlyback and forth, or up and down, to get a good contact with the chip.

If the LED light turns solid red, it means that the reset could not completesuccessfully. This may be because the chip is damaged, it is not an originalEpson chip, or is a chip that is not resettable.

Never reset the ink-level chip without also refilling the cartridge completely.Doing this will tell the printer that the cartridge is full, and may cause the

cartridge and printer to run completely out of ink, making it difficult to get theprinter working correctly again.

2. Tightly seal the ink outlet on the bottom of the cartridge with tape.

3. Use a small screw driver to pry the lid from the cartridge as indicated at left.The lid is easy to remove once you have released the clip.

4. Study the photos at left carefully, and note the positions of the three holesunder the stickers on the top of the cartridge. Remove the stickers to exposethe refill and vent holes.

5. Select the color to be refilled and fill a syringe with ink. Insert the needle intothe refill hole and push the tip of the needle down through the fill chambertoward the bottom of the cartridge.

6. Slowly inject ink into the cartridge until it rises up to the refill hole, and thencarefully withdraw the needle from the cartridge.

7. Attach the small rubber priming tip to an empty syringe and slowly force airinto the fill hole (as shown in the image, below left) until most of the ink in thechamber beneath the refill hole is pushed into the sponge. Stop when the ink nears the bottom of the chamber. Do NOT push all of the ink into the sponge,as air may become trapped in the cartridge.

8. Repeat steps 5-7 until the sponge is saturated with ink but before the ink reaches the vent hole. The ventilation chamber (located below the vent holes)should remain empty. Be sure that the cartridge is filled with ink to the top of the refill hole.

9. Carefully wipe the area around the refill and vent holes until the cartridge isdry, then apply an included adhesive tape dot or use high-quality black electrical tape to form an airtight seal over each opening.

10. Remove the tape covering the ink outlet on the bottom of the cartridge.

11. Ink may drip or seep from the ink outlet as the cartridge pressure equalizes.This may take some time if the cartridge is overfilled. If the outlet drippingdrains all the fluid in the refill chamber, the refill and/or vent hole are notproperly sealed and you should restart the procedure from the beginning,being sure to seal the refill and vent holes fully.

12. When you have verified that the refill and vent holes are sealed properly,reinstall the cartridge, run cleaning cycles, and print test pages. If your printerindicates that the cartridge is empty after refilling, check to ensure that theink level in the refill chamber reaches the refill hole.

13. If you have followed the instructions carefully but need additional help, pleasereview pages 34-35.

If your printer indicates that the cartridge is still empty after refilling, makesure the ink fills the left chamber up to the refill hole.

Ensure that theseal is tight

Note: syringe tipstyles may

vary. Always use

a syringewith a

locking tip.

Warning:Never

push ink back intoa multi-

color cartridge.

HP CartridgeClip Tool

Preparing to Use the Clip Tool

6. Place the ink cartridge in the cartridge refill clip by placing the print headagainst the flat surface of the rubber tip and squeezing the cartridge intothe clip with gentle pressure toward the center of the cartridge until itsnaps into place. Do not force the top of the cartridge down once it isclipped. There should be a small gap visible.

7. Ensure that the print head is aligned with the refill hole in the rubber tipand that it fits flush against the base of the clip. If necessary, adjust thecartridge position by removing and reinserting the cartridge.

Syringe styles may vary. Always use a syringe with a locking tip, as shown,when using the cartridge refill clip.

Refilling with the Clip Tool

CAREFULLY follow the instructions below. It is important to hold both thesyringe and the cartridge securely while refilling. DO NOT attempt to injectink too quickly. Excess pressure may break the seal or cause the syringe toseparate from the rubber tip, resulting in dripping or spraying ink!

1. Attach a needle to a clean syringe, fill the syringe with ink and thencarefully remove the needle. Attach the locking tip of the syringe to therubber tip on the refill clip, and SLOWLY inject ink into the cartridgethrough the print head.

2. As you inject ink, make certain that the syringe and cartridge remainsecurely attached. Refill the syringe as needed. Inject ink until the cartridgeis full, usually 25 to 40ml.

3. Balance the pressure in the cartridge by rotating the cartridge clip until theprint head and syringe are upright and slowly withdrawing the plunger untilair and approximately 3ml of liquid ink is drawn into the syringe.

4. Remove the cartridge from the refill clip and clean the print head with adamp paper towel. Hold the cartridge upright for 30 seconds and watch theprinthead for seeping or dripping ink.

HP Cartridge Priming

Cartridges that have run completely dry may not print properly when refilled.Priming the cartridge using the instructions below may correct this problem. Forbest results, always refill cartridges before they are empty.

1. Attach the locking tip of a clean syringe to the rubber tip on the refill clip.

2. Once you are sure that the seal is tight, position the cartridge as shown, andpull back on the plunger until ink begins to flow into the syringe. Never pushink back into a multi-color cartridge.

3. Remove the cartridge from the refill clip and clean the print head andcontacts with a damp paper towel.


5. If prints are still streaky, use the large and/or small priming tip as describedon page 30 .

Inject ink slowly!!

Leave agap asshown tohelpensure thehead isproperlyaligned




General Cartridge Priming1. Priming tools are provided in the refill kit. Begin by attaching a small or

large priming tip to a clean, dry syringe.

2. The large priming tip is for priming an entire print head. To use it, you mustpress the large end to the outlets on your print head, forming an airtightseal. Pull back on the syringe to apply suction to the print head until ink orink bubbles appear in the syringe. If you cannot establish an airtight seal,

you may need to trim the priming tip to better fit the size of your printhead. Be sure to trim the tip evenly, or the tip may not seal properly.

3. If you are priming a color cartridge, visually inspect the color of the ink inthe syringe. This may indicate which colors are flowing through the printhead properly. When primed properly, ink will flow into the syringe easily.If you cannot get any ink to pull into the syringe, the cartridge may bedried out. Try soaking the print head in warm distilled water for severalhours, then prime again.

4. Wipe the print head with a damp paper towel and examine the nozzles (the

tiny holes on the print head). Press the print head to a damp paper towel,and then to a dry one and examine the uniformity. The printhead should beclean and the nozzles should uniformly release ink.

5. The small suction tip is for priming individual nozzles. It is used in much thesame way as the larger tip, but it is designed to target specific nozzles thatneed to be primed.

6. Press the tip lightly over the clogged nozzles and draw the syringe. Youshould feel some resistance or see ink flow if you are making a good sealwith the surface. If you see the wrong color of ink, then you may be missingthe targeted nozzle. Adjust the position of the syringe and try again. Youmay trim the small priming tip if you need to cover a larger area. Be sure totrim the tip evenly, or the tip may not seal well.

7. After you have finished, clean the head and contacts with a damp papertowel. Place the cartridge into your printer and run test/cleaning cycles asdescribed in your printer manual.

The small priming tip may also be used in conjunction with a rubber squareto remove air from a cartridge so more ink can be injected. Use a largesyringe about half full of ink to start. Temporarily seal any extra holes inthe color chamber you want to fill with rubber plugs or tape. Start bypulling back on the syringe to extract air from the cartridge. Then, when

you gently push back down on the syringe, ink will enter the cartridge.Repeat this cycle 5-10 times until no more air can be extracted from thecartridge. When completed, prime the cartridge again with the priming tipas described above.

Resetting Ink levelsMany printers or print drivers use droplet or page counters to track ink usage. In most cases it is NOTnecessary to reset the page/droplet counter. In some cases, however, this can be a useful tool fordetermining when a cartridge should be refilled. Printing with an empty cartridge can damage a print head,so low ink warnings can help prolong printhead life if the cartridge is promptly refilled. If you cannot or donot reset the ink-counter, be sure to refill frequently to ensure your cartridge does not run dry.

Reset procedures can differ for each printer model and/or printer driver, so always check documentationand manuals provided with your printer or printer driver before attempting any reset method. Somemanufacturers may include instructions on how to reset or override these counters from the printer orwithin the driver software.

Listed below are various methods that may be used by the manufacturer to track ink usage.

Self-Resetting Printers:

Some printers use a combination of counters and sensors. When properly filled and returned to the printer,these cartridges will read as full. Some Canon and Brother printers behave this way.

Menu/LCD Reset:Some multifunction printers will ask if the printer cartridge is new every time it is replaced in the printercarriage. When you choose “new,” the printer will reset the droplet counters and treat this cartridge asnew. Some do not detect when the cartridge has been replaced, but have a menu option for replacing thecartridge. Always read the your printer manual before removing the cartridge to determine the propermethod.

Driver Reset:

The drivers that came with your printer may have a tool under the maintenance tab (if using Windows) forsetting your cartridges as new. Your printer or driver manual will have information in the section forchanging printer cartridges.

Cartridge Memory:Some printers (including many HP models) have a “memory” that recalls the last few cartridges of eachmodel used in the printer. Procedures exist for some of these printers that attempt to rotate the currentcartridge ID out of the printer memory. Sometimes old cartridges can be used in this rotation procedureonce they have exceeded their useful life cycle.

Many such printers allow you to continue printing with a used cartridge until the cartridge fails despiteannoying warning messages. These counters are more like an odometer than a gas gauge and may not resetuntil you replace the cartridge. Printing with an empty cartridge can damage a cartridge's print head, so becareful to refill before the cartridge is empty in order to prolong the life of your cartridge.

Chip Reset:

A few HP cartridges (such as the HP 10/11) will have a separate print head and require a replacement chipand resetter specific to the cartridge. You may wish to perform an Internet search for your cartridgemodel(s) and color(s) to find the specific chip and resetter required for your cartridge.

Alternate Instructions:

Many unverified instructions for resetting or overriding cartridges may be available online as newcartridges and procedures are developed. Stratitec, Inc. does not support or guarantee such procedures.For further information on this subject, please contact our Customer Solution Center.




Cartridge Top RemovalBe careful not to damage the metal contacts located on the back of yourcartridge when using any tools to remove the cartridge top.

1. Some kits may include a cartridge opening tool. The cartridge opening tool

is designed for specific HP and Lexmark color cartridges. If you need a topremoval tool, please see www.easyinkjetrefill.com.

2. Prepare the tool by turning the handle counter-clockwise to ensure that thepush-bar is out of the way.

3. If removing the top from an HP cartridge, fit the plastic spacer into the tool(see photo at left).

4. Insert the cartridge into the tool so that the push-bar aligns with the top of the cartridge, as shown in the photos. The edges of the cartridge top shouldslide snugly into the grooves in the tool.

5. Turn the handle of the tool clockwise to apply pressure to the cartridge top.Continue turning the handle firmly until the top cracks or pops loose. Turnthe handle counter-clockwise to loosen the push-bar and remove thecartridge.

6. Use a flat screwdriver or pliers if necessary to completely remove the topfrom the cartridge. Use tools with care to avoid damaging the sensors onthe back of the cartridge.

Alternate Removal Methods (see photos, below)

If your kit does not include a cartridge opening tool, or if the cartridge openingtool does not work for your cartridge, you may try to carefully remove the topof the cartridge using channel-lock pliers or a small screwdriver. Use care to

prevent damage to the metal contacts located on the back of the cartridge.If the top is difficult to remove, use the included 3mm drill bit to make a holeabove each ink chamber instead of removing the top. Refer to the color locationdiagrams included with the specific instructions for your cartridge, and drillstraight down to the sponge for each color chamber. Be very careful to avoidoverfilling, as ink can overflow into other color chambers under the lid.

It may be helpful to carefully score the seam of the cartridge top. WARNING:Use extreme caution if you choose to use a knife to score the seam of thecartridge. Keep the refill kit and tools, such as knives, out of reach of children.

Many cartridges have an optimum mass (weight)when properly filled. Filling cartridges to their

optimum mass helps ensure consistent and high-quality results.

Use a small lab or postal scale, to measure yourcartridge mass. Use the tables listed here todetermine the recommended mass of your refilledcartridge and fill to that level.

Follow these tips for weighing a cartridge todetermine its mass:

• Remove any tape, packaging or storage clipsbefore measuring the cartridge mass/volume.

• Keep the scale on an even, solid surface togenerate the most accurate measurements.

• Be sure to zero your scale before you place thecartridge for measurement.

• Check that cartridge is not dripping or leakingink before placing it on a scale. If you get ink on

your scale, wipe it off immediately with a damppaper towel. You may need to zero your scaleagain.

You may wish to estimate the amount of ink required to refill your cartridge by subtracting the mass of theempty cartridge from the estimated full mass. Use this value when filling the syringe with ink.

The difference in grams will be approximately equal to (≈) the difference in milliliters of ink.
